Wild and wet weather this morning made the perfect conditions for a long lie-in this morning watching the clouds racing across the sky while listening to 2 omnibus editions of The Archers. It was dry but still windy in the afternoon so suitably wrapped up (I love that quote from Alfred Wainwright - There's no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing.) I got on with my wall building. I haven't built a wall in such a haphazard way before, reinforcing my drystone technique with dollops of cement behind the stones, but hopefully it will work. All the stones that I used originally are still there so it is like putting together a 3-D puzzle. Once I've got this section up to the correct height I'll pull down the remaining section and re-do that as it is too far forward and has some large ferns growing in it.
Right now there is a wood fire burning merrily and I'm looking forward to a relaxing evening of Strictly and the results show.
Advance warning - the internet hub flashed a yellow light at me yesterday, only for a moment but it might mean that lots of rain will close us down again. So if I go off-line that will probably be the reason why.
